Hi John,

I don't think there is one central place where this kind of material is
organized on a wiki—yet. I know there are a few categories on Wikimedia
Commons [0] with materials and submissions, a page on Meta Wiki [1] with a
library of EU policy resources, some research on particular topics on
Wikilegal [2], and material linked at the end of the position statements at
policy.wikimedia.org [3].

If you have time to propose a simple and useful organization system, I
think that would be a helpful start.

Thanks for thinking about this.

Best,
Stephen
